<p>To those who are still young, HS really is about the experiences, the maturation you go through, and the ppl you meet, and not just about the studying. Reach out of your comfort zone, grab those opportunities, and do something exciting, different and interesting, even if it means sacrificing some time and energy. The memories will be worth it.</p>
<p>I find myself being an a hole to my parents sometimes when I know they mean well. I just can't help it sometimes, living with people for so long can get to you. Some things they say and do are just annoying to me.<em>sigh</em> I'm a poop head.</p>
<p>This might be a little personal, but I really wish I would have gotten help for my depression sooner. It would have made a huge difference in my happiness freshman year.</p>
<p>I sprained both my ankles very unfortunately. I regretted that I shoudn't jump that high to grab that rebound, when I came down, my ankle was done. Man, if my ankles are perfect right now, I'm sure I'm a beast around the rim.</p>
<p>wayyyy overloading on classes and not continuing to play sports</p>

<p>Obscured perception of what is really important.</p>
<p>Not telling the girl I loved that I loved her.</p>

<p>i'm a complete wimp around/about guys</p>
<p>Ditching school 40 times during second semester of freshmen year to play WoW, getting Ds and Fs and royally screwing up my rank..</p>
<p>I don’t have any regrets. I am very happy with the way I’ve lived my life so far. (This also includes my HS life.)</p>
<p>1)Not realizing that colleges don’t look at honors classes as weighted(I wish I knew that before I signed up for classes a few months ago:/)
2)Not spending enough time with my family
3)Not spending as much time on math hw(the reason I don’t have a 4.0:<)
4)Not getting involved in a sport or instrument that I’m passionate about
5)Not telling this one kid who has no friends that I would be his friend and that he could eat lunch with my friends and me(I always wanted to tell him that and I never did:/ This year I will!)</p>
<p>Letting my life get messed up/lame after 9th grade.</p>
<p>That letter.</p>
<p>typing college discussions on google and finding this site</p>
<p>Bumping a year-old thread.</p>
<p>^^Haha, I think finding this site goes both ways.
Negatives-makes me feel like my gpa is low/is addicting
Postives-provides me with helpful information
O, I thought of another one:
. Posting so much on hsl haha</p>
<p>:: Not putting myself out there enough
:: Being too dependent on people (not in terms of schoolwork, but a lot of times, I would hold back from joining something if I didn’t have a friend w/ me) ==> next year’s goal – be a little more independent and proactive
:: Not budgeting my time effectively in my freshman year</p>
<p>– might add to this later - my brain’s all fried up from doing a bunch of summer homework</p>
